True, but I can use the index of my reshape solution. Aggregate was
the crucial ingredient.  Thanks both!

For the record, this is the full solution:

head(d)
    rt dur tid  mood roi  x
55 5523 200   4  subj   9  5
56 5523  52   4  subj   7 31
57 5523 209   4  subj   4  9
58 5523 188   4  subj   4  7
70 4016 264   5 indic   9 51
71 4016 195   5 indic   4 14

index  <- c(TRUE,diff(d$roi)!=0)
d2     <- d[index,]

index  <- cumsum(index)
d2$dur <- aggregate(d$dur, list(index=index), sum)[2]
d2$x   <- aggregate(d$x, list(index=index), mean)[2]
